    It was my first time dining in the cantina version of this restaurant chain and I was very pleased. The food was actually very good and service was superb. I wish I remembered the gentleman's name that helped us out. He was fabulous I would go to sit at his section... big white dude with a beard... maybe Adrian. He was great and super helpful with the menu. Great service really makes a difference. The margarita flights were delicious and We had a mixed grill which was peefectly portioned, we even took some home!!!Definitely a good to when in the area!

    This is Abrianna, Julia and Romeo. Abby had gone home by the time I took this picture.

    I sat at the bar because they were very busy. Typically, I do not like to sit at the bar because you never know what kind of service you will receive. Well today, I was very happily surprised. The team consisted of Romeo, Julia, Abby, and Abrianna. They worked as a team and my glass was never empty, my area was always clean and they always had a warm smile and a kind greeting. They were amazing. I ordered the combo that had a taco, tamale, and enchiladas. The taco and tamale were OK but the enchiladas were awesome. If you're near humble Texas and you're looking for some good Tex-Mex, Papasito's will answer your hunger call. The service was definitely five stars the food rates four stars.

    I love the specials but usually stick to my regulars.

    I called to schedule our lunch gathering for coworkers. They were very accommodating for our party of 16. It was during the week and first thing in the morning. Kandra and Jonathan served us and did a wonderful job. I ordered chipotle shrimp, with double rice. Jonathan brought me a roasted jalapeño pepper which really helped kick up the flavor of the meal. I also got their mango and peach flavored tea. You have to ask for it and they will combine flavors. We ordered guacamole but I don't like the pepitas that they add. I always forget to exclude that. I love the chips that come with the guacamole but their other chips are delicious too. The queso with beef was a big hit. I had to force myself to stop so I would eat my meal. We were in and out in an hour and a half. I love the fact they seated us in the corner and out of the way of any crowds. The place was not busy yet and that was a plus.

    Fajitas
    Nicki M.

    Tex Mex is basically a food group when in Houston area and Pappasito's is definitely worth a visit. The service is good and prompt. The vibe is always chill and laid back. The queso is delicious and fajitas are tender. If you like your beef a bit more done, be sure to request as it typically is served medium rare. I really love that the salsa is served warm- it's next level over typical cold salsa!

    Came here for a friend's birthday and had a great time. Service was really nice and everything came out fast. I probably ate two baskets of chips myself and I didn't need any of the salsa or quac (which was great). My margarita was terrific and my shrimp quesadilla was gigantic! It really could have fed two people. The parking lot was completely full so we parked at the credit union next door (it was late on a Friday night so they were closed) so if you can't find a space, check there. This is a very popular location so make reservations if you can.

    Fajita Wednesday Special
    Daniella L.

    Truly the best pappasitos i've ever been to! Our server Desiree went above and beyond and was extremely attentive. From the moment we walked in we were immediately seated and taken care of. The entire team was so sweet throughout our visit. The whole atmosphere is great from the get go. Our food came out quickly and was not only completely filling, but delicious. The meat is always so flavorful and tender, and cooked to perfection! The floor manager Jade also came out to check on us and our experience. She helped me with getting exactly what we wanted when she truly did not have to! I was beyond happy and thankful for the service. Jade and Desiree you really made my day with this visit! It meant so much to me and thank you for your impeccable service! Wednesdays are usually our favorite time to visit for the amazing Fajitas, but now it's a must!

    Chicken flautas

    This place is always packed and most of the time there is a waiting. However this time we were seated immediately despite alot of parties and graduations our service went well and the food came out fairly quick. The ambiance is casual nothing fancy however if your looking for a place to host a group this place definitely accommodates. The only downside I would say is that they are a little pricey. However this was our second time and we enjoyed it.

    Watermelon Margherita
    Sherry D.

    The wait staff is very attentive. The Watermelon Margherita was delicious! I had the Barria Tacos and Chips with Queso! Was delicious! The portions were enough for two. Great prices too! I will be back!

    Happy hour
    Tiffany M.

    Happy hour and Fajita Wednesdays are my go to. The bar is always live and the team is very attentive to your needs. I recommend them.

    Great food! The salsa is awesome, you can tell they make it fresh! Yum. Drinks are strong. Staff very friendly. They were playing guitars live while we ate. Make sure to get a reservation so you don't have to wait.

    Filet and shrimp stuffed with crabcake fajitas
    Kamron A.

    Service was solid and very attentive! The queso with grilled beef it was excellent and also got the filet and stuff shrimp with crabcake fajitas were absolutely delicious! Steak was cooked to perfection for medium rare and the shrimp and crab cake stuffing was very large and delicious!

    Albana O.

    High quality food, huge portions, and great customer service make this place stand out. If you visit, I highly recommend the quail. You heard me, QUAIL. Everything is seasoned perfectly and it comes with 2 of them. Our party enjoyed sitting in the back portion of the restaurant where it was a little easier to hear each other talk, but there's so much space, you can find something more lively if you prefer that too.

However, Jose-Luis made sure I had a great first experience. He provided great food suggestions and instructed the staff on how to assemble my tacos. I came for a couple tacos and walked out with four! Let me tell you...the tacos were very good. They had the homemade taste, made with real ingredients! Not a lot of processed stuff. You can taste the difference. While eating I didn't feel as if heartburn was knocking at the door. I'm very excited about the freshness and clean taste. Not overly salty. Some may need salt, but I appreciate the freshness! So excited. The ambiance is causal, with the feel of being at a neighbors house for lunch. Very relaxed. I guess me being from California, being used to fresh tasting tacos, this is a hit for me! I can't wait to return to try some of the other taco meats. Note: They typically close at 2pm daily, but occasionally will close at 1pm. You might want to call to verify their hours.

For the tacos- I like onion and cilantro so didn't mind but they ask if you want c&c and they just throw it in all your tacos. So it's best to tell them just on these tacos. I wish they would cook the tortillas a bit more cus they do feel doughy and undercooked. We got egg and bacon there wasn't much flavor. Same for the barbacoa. For them making it "a la Mexicana aka with tomatoes,onions and pepper" it sure had no flavor. The salsa-red was spicy no flavor and I'm not a green salsa person but I ended up using that one more. Before we finished some guy came over and said are you done? And without hesitation quickly removed our "plate" before I could say hey I'm still eating that. Overall it's not a place I'll go back to.

During the pandemic the menu shrunk drastically they took many popular items off the menu and are no longer there. One of them was veggie enchiladas to name.

I like the jalapeño dip is the same flavor but I feel like the last couple of times that I've gone it was bit watery not sure who's making the batches of sauces but are watered down. Also, on my last visit, I heard overheard servers talking about other coworkers which is not cool if this issues in the restaurant, let it be between yourself on text email or outside of the restaurant not for customers to hear. Maybe it's just this location that is going downhill but I will not be back here. I sure hope this works out.

I had a job interview there and the interviewer was so rude I almost considered never giving this place my business again. When I met her she was late to the interview, had a McDonald's drink, she accused me of a criminal history because she had the wrong application (and didn't believe me when I told her I didn't have a criminal record), and told me my clothes were unprofessional. I came in wearing the same stuff the servers wear to a T . Then she acted like she was doing me a favor by scheduling me another interview, but told me she'd be "too tired for 11 am so let's do noon". When I showed up at noon the next day she wasn't even there. I know it's a weird complaint but again I almost am considering never giving my business to this place again if that's the standard the owners of this place are okay with. I'm pretty sure her name was Ashley. She had dark hair and glasses if I remember. Terrible lady

There are not many Monterey's left and I don't see the Humble location lasting much longer. I'm giving a two star rating (opposed to one star) only because the food was decent.

I asked the girl can you fill it a little more because now it's looking empty to me, at this point, I'm already annoyed because she really brought it back almost empty and I paid 5 dollars for the small cup.... manager comes out big Mexican with spiky hair and tells me they have certain types of measurements and if I want to fill it more it will be an extra 1.99!! That's just ridiculously expensive for a s/m cup of horchata, like be so for real Horchata the price of a margarita is just insane to me. If I would've said yes charge me that 1.99 I would've paid 7 dollars for this dumb shit. I literally just told them to put the ice back in there so I don't feel like I wasted my money
